Biltwell Gringo S - Vintage Desert Spectrum - ECE R22.06
£227.00
An old favourite but now with a new fit and new features. The latest Gringo S helmet not only meets DOT regulations in the US, it also meets the new European ECE 22.06 regs. The shield mechanism now uses the same anti-rattle closure featured on our Lane Splitter helmets. Three shell sizes replace the previous two for improved fit and comfort.
The Biltwell Gringo S has a sleek, old-school and iconic look from back to the 70’s with the high protection standards of the present time. The Gringo S is made of a slim profile ABS outer shell with hand-painted beautiful colors, CE certified anti-scratch and anti-fog visor, removable and washable liner with hand-sewn diamond stitch. Also there are speaker cut-outs for intercoms, a double d-ring chin strap and the helmets are ECE 22.06 and DOT certified.Injection-molded ABS outer shell is lightweight and highly resistant to impacts
